Ascending 218m into the clouds, you haven’t seen S’pore till you’ve whizzed yourself right to the rooftop of ION Orchard. Sitting on Level 55, set against the backdrop of the astounding 360° city skyline, is Salt Grill & Sky Bar.

This wedding anniversary, hubby & I chose to dine at Salt Grill, by Celebrity Chef Luke Mangan. It’s truly gourmet dining with stunning views! Upon ushered to our seats, by the full-fledged windows with mind-blowing skyline of S’pore, a plate of warm curry bread with raisins served with Extra-virgin Olive Oil & a mixture of Spices, soon greeted us. To start off, my hubby opted for Salt’s signature ‘Glass’ Sydney Crab Omelette (S$29). The egg dish was filled with fresh succulent crabmeat & topped with Enoki Mushroom Salad, bathed in Miso Mustard broth. It was a delight to begin with. My son & I stuck to our favourite & had the Foie Gras Parfait (S$27 each). A unique way of serving the delicacy, together with toasted Brioche, Walnut & Mesclun Salad.
It was so delicious that he emptied his parfait as though it was Chawanmushi (Japanese Egg Custard) in no time. For the main, I'd tucked myself in with their suggested Roasted Gnocchi with Pork & Fennel Sausage (S$36). It was an unusual choice for me but I wanted something light. The potato dish was flavoured with Parmesan & Pangritata & it was tasty. However, I'd prefer to have bite-size sausages instead of minced. The two men are fish lovers, so they opted for the Barramundi Fillet (S$38 each). The fish was nicely grilled & served with Green Beans & Wasabi Mayonnaise. The Wasabi gave the fillet a hinge of zest, but thankfully, it wasn’t too spicy for Jon. All of us had enjoyed Luke’s Liquorice Parfait with Lime (S$16 each), which was worth the try. A distinctive dessert with a different touch. The meal all ended too fast. We’d a good time sipping Mint Tea & trying out their Petit Fours (S$10).
After a satisfying lunch, we continued to elevate our senses at the highly acclaimed Sky Bar. En-route, guests can play with the State-of-Art telescope, featuring live & augmented reality viewing.
